5. Setup

1. Ensure the wall socket is easily accessible, properly grounded, and meets the electrical requirements (230V, 16A).
2. Plug the Hama Surge Protection Adapter firmly into the wall socket.
3. The red 'POWER' LED should illuminate, indicating that the adapter is receiving mains voltage.
4. Plug your electronic device into the socket of the surge protection adapter.

6. Operating Instructions

Once connected, the adapter continuously monitors the power supply to protect your devices.

• Red 'POWER' LED: This indicator illuminates when the adapter is receiving mains voltage. If this light is off, check the wall socket and the adapter connection.
• Green 'PROTECTED' LED: This indicator illuminates when the surge protection function is active and operating correctly. If this light is off, the surge protection may have been triggered by a power surge, and the device should be replaced.

7. Maintenance

• Disconnect the adapter from the power supply before cleaning.
• Clean the adapter with a dry, soft cloth. Do not use abrasive cleaners, solvents, or wet cloths, as these can damage the device or pose an electrical hazard.
• Store the adapter in a dry place away from direct sunlight and extreme temperatures when not in use.

8. Troubleshooting

• No LEDs illuminate:
  Check if the wall socket is live by plugging in another device. Ensure the adapter is fully inserted into the socket. If the issue persists, the adapter may be faulty.
• Red 'POWER' LED is on, but Green 'PROTECTED' LED is off:
  This indicates that the surge protection has been activated due to an overvoltage event. The adapter has protected your connected devices but is no longer providing surge protection. For continued protection, the adapter should be replaced.
• Connected device does not power on:
  Ensure the device itself is functioning correctly by testing it in a different, known-good power outlet. Check its power cable and switch. If other devices work when plugged into the surge adapter, the issue may be with the connected device, not the adapter.
